A land nodal seismic system was employed to acquire seismic reflection data using stand-alone cable-free receivers in a land-river area. Acquiring reliable data using this technology is very cost effective, as it avoids topographic problems in the deployment and collection of receivers. The land nodal airgun system deployed on the mouth of the Hyungsan River (in Pohang, Gyeongsangbuk Province) used airgun sources in the river and receivers on the riverbank, with subparallel source and receiver lines, approximately 120 m-spaced. Seismic data collected on the riverbank are characterized by a low signal-to-noise (S/N) and inconsistent reflection events. Most of the events are represented by hyperbola in the field records, including direct waves, guided waves, air waves, and Scholte surface waves, in contrast to the straight lines in the data collected conventionally where source and receiver lines are coincident. The processing strategy included enhancing the signal behind the low-frequency large-amplitude noise with a cascaded application of bandpass and f-k filters for the attenuation of air waves. Static time delays caused by the cross-offset distance between sources and receivers are corrected, with a focus on mapping the shallow reflections obscured by guided wave and air wave noise. A new time-distance equation and curve for direct and air waves are suggested for the correction of the static time delay caused by the cross-offset between source and receiver. Investigation of the minimum cross-offset gathers shows well-aligned shallow reflections around 200 ms after time-shift correction. This time-delay static correction based on the direct wave is found essential to improving the data from parallel source and receiver lines. Data acquisition and processing strategies developed in this study for land nodal airgun seismic systems will be readily applicable to seismic data from land-sea areas when high-resolution signal data becomes available in the future for investigation of shallow gas reservoirs, faults, and engineering designs for the development of coastal areas.

Guided waves can be used for the inspection of long range pipelines. Surface corrosion is often found as a major defect type in pipelines. The reciprocity relation is a well-established theorem by which one can simplify complicated mathematical expressions. The approach has been already applied to plate and half-space structures to obtain the closed-form solutions of scattered amplitude. However, results for the case of cylindrical structures have not been reported yet. In this paper, the scattering of torsional waves, which is widely used in commercial applications, is explored by the reciprocity theorem approach. Obtaining closed-form solutions of the amplitudes of propagating waves is much simplified by using the reciprocal relation. The scattered amplitudes for elliptical and rectangular defect shapes are calculated with respect to defect depth and width, at frequencies between 0 and 500 kHz. The amplitude shows the periodic result as a function of frequency. The derived closed-form solutions can play a significant role in quantitative signal interpretation.

For the calculation of the free-surface elevation, a new finite difference scheme is studied where the third derivative term for the wave elevation is artificially added in the Eulerian expression of the free-surface boundary condition. The paper presents a comparative analysis with simulations performed by the classical MAC method. More schematic computations are carried out by changing the submergence-depth and angle-of-attack. The present study shows that this new method is very efficient for the simulation of free-surface elevation around the trailing edge.

제주도는 최근 기후변화에 의한 태풍의 증가로 집중호우의 빈도가 지속적으로 증가하고 있는 추세이고 지난 태풍 나리로 인해 발생한 제주시에서의 극심한 재해로 태풍 시 홍수 유량 관측 및 저류지의 건설로 인한 저류효과의 분석에 많은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 제주대학교 주관의 제주도 물순환 해석 및 수자원 관리체계 구축 사업단은 제주도 환경에 적합한 유량조사기법을 적용 및 개발 중에 있으며 특히 집중 호우 시 유량 계측을 비롯한 제주 유량 자료 확보 방안에 대해 연구를 수행하고 있다. 제주도 연구단은 지난 여름 태풍 무이파 때 제주시 하천의 제 2동산교에서 다양한 계측 방식을 활용하여 유량관측을 성공적으로 수행하였다. 태풍 무이파는 강한 중형 태풍으로 제주도 산간 지역에 700mm 이상의 집중호우를 보여 제주 하천에 많은 양의 유출을 발생시키고 일부 재산 및 인명 피해를 발생시켰다. 홍수 유량의 계측은 지금까지도 최적화된 계측 방식이 확립되지 못했고 그 측정의 어려움과 계측기기의 한계로 봉부자 같은 전통적인 방식의 홍수유량 측정방식이 여전히 통용되고 있는 현실이다. 하지만 본 연구단은 최신 관측기법인 비접촉식의 표면영상유속계와 전자파표면유속계를 사용하여 전 강우 지속시간 동안 유량을 매 시간마다 관측하여 수문곡선을 완성하여 홍수 유량 계측의 효율성과 정확성을 높일 수 있었다. 계측 결과 홍수유출 시 한천 상류의 제 1,2 저류지가 가동되어 저류효과가 수문곡선에 반영되었음을 알 수 있었고 홍수 유출 시 나타나는 대표적인 특이 경향이 수위-유량곡선의 이격현상도 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 홍수 유출은 단순히 수위 자료만으로는 부족하고 유속자료를 동시에 관측해야 정확한 계측치를 확보할 수 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한 최신 계측기기인 표면영상유속계와 전자파표면유속계의 유속 관측값의 상호비교도 실시하여 관측기기의 효율성을 검증하였다.

Using transmission-line equivalent circuit based on cross-field model for an interdigital acoustic wave transducer, an efficient simulation technique of SAW filters by SPICE is proposed. Propagation of surface acoustic wave is modeled as transmission line so that frequency-dependent circuit elements are not needed in the equivalent circuit of an interdigital transducer. Because the equivalent circuits for frequency-dependent circuit elements are not derived approximately, and a small number of circuit elements are used in the equivalent circuit for filters, simulation time is much reduced. The utility of the proposed technique is demonstrated through simulation for the characteristics of SAW filters such as insertion loss, input admittance, passband ripple, and harmonic frequency response.

In the evaluation of the subgrade stiffness structure by the SASW method, the calculation of the phase velocities is the important task controlling the reliability of the result. The interpretation of the phase spectrum should precede the phase-velocity calculation in the current practice of the SASW method. The difficulty involved in the interpretation prohibited the SASW method from being spread over to the industry. This study proposed a new method called the frequency-wave number technique, which is based on the frequency-wave number relationship of the surface wave in the multi-layered system. The frequency-wave number technique eliminates the expertise in the interpretation of the phase spectrum, automates the phase-velocity calculation and expedites the determination of the phase-velocity dispersion curve. To verify the validity of the proposed frequency-wave number method, the transfer function determined from the numerical simulation of the SASW measurements was used fir the calculation of the automatic calculation of the phase velocities and compared with the phase velocities by WinSASW employing the phase-unwrapping method. Also, the proposed method was applied to the real SASW measurements performed at$\bigcirc$$\bigcirc$area in GyeongGi-Do to see how the proposed method works with the real measurements.

하천에서 물이 비교적 빠른 속도로 흘러가면 압력 변동, 하상의 조도, 하천내 구조물 등의 영향에 의해 수면이 끊임없이 변형을 일으키며 수면에 작은 물결(수면 파문)이 생긴다. 이러한 수면 파문은 유수에 의해 유수의 평균 유속으로 이류되며, 이 때문에 인간이 유수의 흐름을 시각적으로 인식할 수 있다. 이러한 표면 파문은 적절한 영상 분석을 하면 표면 유속 측정의 추적자로 이용할 수 있다. 본 연구는 유수 표면을 연속된 영상을 촬영하고, 일련의 영상을 시공간 영상(space-time image)으로 만든 뒤, 휘도 경사법(graylevel gradient method)으로 유속 벡터를 추출하는 새로운 방법을 제시하였다. 이 분석 과정은 기존의 입자 영상 유속계(PIV, Particle Image Velocimetry) 기법을 이용하는 방법보다 훨씬 간단하고 분석 시간도 크게 절약할 수 있다. 또한, 수면 파문의 전파에 따른 중력파의 영향을 시공간 영상의 처리 과정에서 잡음으로 간주하여 처리할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 개발된 루틴을 표면 영상 유속계(SIV, Surface Image Velocimtery)에 구현하여 새로운 영상 유속계를 개발하였다. 시공간 영상 분속을 이용하는 새로운 영상 유속계를 실험실 수로의 영상 자료에 적용하여 그 정확도, 적용성, 장단점 등을 분석하였다. 제안된 방법에 의한 평균류 산정 결과는 물리적으로 타당하며, 저속 또는 저휘도에서의 분석 성능이 뛰어난 것으로 밝혀졌다. 다만, 이방향 흐름의 분석에서는 문제가 있는 것이 밝혀졌다.

This paper presents a time-domain Gauss-Newton full-waveform inversion method for the material profile reconstruction in heterogeneous semi-infinite solid media. To implement the inverse problem in a finite computational domain, perfectly-matchedlayers( PMLs) are introduced as wave-absorbing boundaries within which the domain's wave velocity profile is to be reconstructed. The inverse problem is formulated in a partial-differential-equations(PDE)-constrained optimization framework, where a least-squares misfit between measured and calculated surface responses is minimized under the constraint of PML-endowed wave equations. A Gauss-Newton-Krylov optimization algorithm is utilized to iteratively update the unknown wave velocity profile with the aid of a specialized regularization scheme. Through a series of one-dimensional examples, the solution of the Gauss-Newton inversion was close enough to the target profile, and showed superior convergence behavior with reduced wall-clock time of implementation compared to a conventional inversion using Fletcher-Reeves optimization algorithm.
